Abstract

Let \(E_{n} =\{ x_{k} = 1,\ x_{i} + x_{j} = x_{k},\ x_{i} \cdot x_{j} = x_{k}: i,j,k \in \{ 1,\ldots,n\}\}\). For any integer n ≥ 2214, we define a system \(T \subseteq E_{n}\) which has a unique integer solution (a 1, , a n ). We prove that the numbers a 1, , a n are positive and \(\mathrm{max}\left (a_{1},\ldots,a_{n}\right ) > 2^{2^{n} }\). For a positive integer n, let f(n) denote the smallest non-negative integer b such that for each system \(S \subseteq E_{n}\) with a unique solution in non-negative integers x 1, , x n , this solution belongs to [0, b]n. We prove that if a function \(g: \mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{N}\) has a single-fold Diophantine representation, then f dominates g. We present a MuPAD code which takes as input a positive integer n, performs an infinite loop, returns a non-negative integer on each iteration, and returns f(n) on each sufficiently high iteration.
